Example:
If the high and low amplitudes of a sine wave are used to
encode a 1 and a 0, two bits can be encoded per sine wave
period.
Relationship: B = C/2
Nyquist formula
The previous discussion assumed 2 amplitude
levels used to encode bits.
General case: Nyquist bit rate formula
C = 2B log2 L
where L is the number of levels used to encode
bits.
Shannons Formula
Claude Shannon examined the problem of
communication through a noisy channel.
The result is a limitation on the capacity of a
channel based on the amount of noise.
The formula:
S
C B log 2 1
N
Signal-to-noise ratio
The ratio S / N is the signal to noise ratio.
Units are often reported in bels, which is the
logarithm (base 10) of the ratio
Decibels: 10 times the above value
Example 35 dB = 3.5 bels
really means x = n y

Question 2
We have a channel with a 1 MHz bandwidth. The
ratio S/N is 63. What is the appropriate bit rate
and number of signal levels?

Question 2
We have a channel with a 1 MHz bandwidth. The ratio S/N
is 63. What is the appropriate bit rate and number of signal
levels?
First, use Shannons formula to find the upper data rate at 1
signal level:
C B log 2 1
N

Question 2
We have a channel with a 1 MHz bandwidth. The ratio S/N
is 63. What is the appropriate bit rate and number of signal
levels?
First, use Shannons formula to find the upper data rate at 1
signal level:
C B log 2 1
N
C = 1106 log2(1+63)
= 1106 log2(64)
= 1106 6
= 6 106 b/s

Question 2
We have a channel with a 1 MHz bandwidth. The ratio S/N
is 63. What is the appropriate bit rate and number of signal
levels?
Next, use the Nyquist formula to obtain the number of
signal levels L:
C = 2B log2 L
22
Question 2
We have a channel with a 1 MHz bandwidth. The ratio S/N
is 63. What is the appropriate bit rate and number of signal
levels?
Next, use the Nyquist formula to obtain the number of
signal levels L:
C = 2B log2 L
6 106 = 2 1 106 log2(L)
3 = log2(L)
8=L
Therefore, 8 signal levels can be used to send bits at 6 10 6
b/s over this channel.

Question 3
Suppose that an FM radio station is allocated 200
KHz of bandwidth, and wants to digitally
broadcast stereo CD music which means that 16
bits need to be sent at a sample rate of 44,100
samples per second for each of 2 sound channels.
How many signal levels are needed?
C = 2B log2 L
44100x16x2 = 2Blog2L
